Lovers come from near and far to get married here in the very charming little church.

The jaw is a pillory, court post, scourge post to which a person was tied as a punishment and exposed to the community. There is no shame in taking a selfie here. It would be a shame if you carelessly pass by this piece of history.
Denouncing someone was a typical medieval punishment for minor offences. They were to serve as an example to the public, so that everyone could hear and see the consequences of not respecting the laws. Sentencing usually took place on market days or after high mass on Sunday.

For those who are planning a walk along the Nete, this little village is so picturesque and worth a visit, go down the stairs and via the small road through the field... you will be in the village center in no time.
